The Tea Cult
GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD
A Six-Seat Tea Room · Calgary, Alberta · Planet Earth
— OUR PURPOSE: THE SIMPLE BOTTOM LINE —
The Tea Cult is a cozy, slow-paced, six-seat tea room where cultural heritage, story, sensory experience, modern art, and very good tea are deliberately tangled together.
This is not a place designed for efficiency. It is a place designed for attention. You may arrive for tea. You may stay for the stories. You may leave thinking about something entirely different.
“With intention, tea can guide us into a unique mental space.”
Private tastings and classes can be arranged outside public opening hours. If Google Maps sends you into the strange back alley, do not panic. There is nearby parking.

Music Sommerier: Autumn
The "Music Sommerier" series is an ambitious style of event in which tea is paired with classical and contemporary orchestral music. Guests will be taken through approximately a half hour of music and tea pairing, with no speaking or interruptions, and will be encouraged to keep their eyes closed as much as they're comfortable and 'live in the sound and fragrance'
The theme today will be Autumn, covering the tail end of a beautiful summer into the somber silence the forests create as the trees drop their leaves and enter the pregnancy of winter.
$30 Per Person, 5 Teas Served, Approximately half hour event with up to 2 hours of discussion time and casual hang out afterwards.

Greetings friends, this is a long time coming. Obviously it’s important to have a website, but The Tea Cult website was never really used for anything other than seeing the menu and making reservations (both of which can still be done!) but aesthetically its much more ‘culty’ now. Is ‘culty’ the right direction? Probably not […]
This book is literally about tea appreciation, but more abstractly about how to utilize tea to facilitate a fulfilling life, living in the moment, appreciating beautiful things, and manipulating them to temporary, fleeting art. It then goes on to encourage a life seeking these moments, methods to find them, and how to spread this feeling […]
